Mugen rear bumper
Any owners out there?
Does it come with a fog light receptacle, like the EU cars? Would it be easy to retrofit one?
Any other issues? I vaguely recall people complaining about having to perform some cutting, but I can't seem to locate the threads right now.
Thanks in advance.

To answer your questions simply,
1: The rear Mugen bumper doesn't have the receptable or slot to put in the rear fog lamp. You can let it hang down and attach it underneath the bumper since the Mugen bumper is raised higher than the stock bumper.
2: I do not know about the others but here is my input based on my installation. The top of the exausts comes in contact with rear bumper support, so it had to be removed to install bumper and the exaust.
Luis, you should also ask demonderryck(did I get his username right?) and how he installed his.
Good luck and hope you get your exaust fixed soon.

The big issue is that the only exhaust that fits the bumper is the SS2000 Mugen Exhaust.

Luder94, if you do modify on exhaust, I don't see there is any exhaust won't fit the SS bumper... but IMO, Mugen bumper goes very well with the mugen SS exhaust..
1RandyC, yup, the bumper reinforcement needs to be taken out... but if you don't mind, you could cut it...!! so, at least there is something there.... but now, since it is cutted.... will it still work will be the problem...
maybe he could put the fog light in between 2 exhaust tip under the licence plate?

luis, yes, just like what 1RandyC said, you have to take rear bumper reinforcement/bumper support out in case to put it back... the thing is, if you decided to cut it..then, you better buy the stock one for back up if you ever wanna go back to stock... However... yup, that is the spot I am talking about..
